I disagree. I think some people are just trying to profit from this, which obviously doesn’t do actual victims of systemic racism any favors.

It seems like all the attention on DEI is actually an attempt to discredit it. Familiarity breeds contempt. Then we can look at what happened with Claudine Gay- what a joke. It almost seems like she was planted to discredit the movement.

When people say “systemic racism doesn’t exist,” there’s an implication that it has never existed.


Pure unadulterated BS.

There isn't a rational person who would say racism was never rampant throughout every US institution but that eneded well over 50-60 years ago, it's people like you who want this societal division based on ethnicity to continue, fomenting racial divisions are the staple of Dim/Groomer political strategy.

As long as disparate impact has influence on laws and policy the tactic will continue on the left

youre just wrong.

The left has no faith in black people, their only way to achieve "equity" is to take from the successful and give to the unsuccessful.

There’s no doubt about that. But we have a president out here telling the nation that far right white men are the biggest threat to our county. How do you feel about that?

Some probably is. It needs to be discredited, though. It needs to be defeated. I have 1 life to live and it doesn’t need to be made worse by the actions of some assholes in the past. I owe it to myself to fight against that.

More noble than going back to 1968 to prove a point about racism in 2024?

The "noble effort" was to prove BEYOND a shadow of a doubt what a gdamned liar you are.

Your words are that of an unhinged Liberal Screech and should be dismissed as such.

You are a Redditor shite-posting on a Center-Right board.

Your ideas are dangerous and hateful as is the precious Reddit you love so much.

My whole life is predicated on "don't start none, won't be none".

If you are a pompous lying piece of shite posting dangerous propaganda on a message board, you are in my sites...

This is why I voluntarily live under a rock. shite like this only causes more stress and negative feelings. I'm so disappointed by what politics has devolved into. Maybe it's always been like that I was just a sucker for it but my eyes have really been opened to how foolish our politicians are in the last 10 years. And the populace falls for it like a bunch of suckers.

We need to stop giving that sort of bs any attention. We need to be solutions-oriented instead of blame-oriented. It's getting us nowhere.

Maybe. I guess I'm not totally sure what is meant by DEI or how it positively or negatively impacts the general population. I came to the tread to post about systemic racism, so I haven't really touched the DEI aspect.

An under-qualified plagiarist was the best Harvard could do?

Harvard made her the face of DEI when she had no business being part of the conversation, really. But it definitely discredited the movement and makes people question the worthiness of other black women in academia who hold leadership positions.

It won't be in your lifetime. Religions take decades to fade away.

I still don't know what "gold-star rating" means.

I got reddit gold five years ago after I posted asking for advice about fostering my HIV+ positive student on an HIV subreddit. I had totally forgotten about that, to be honest.

You're the one who comes to the TD political talk board to talk about Reddit, friend.

Start with yourself.

When you make up lies about "systemic racism" being a real thing in 2024, you are allying yourself with racists who hate White men.

Stop preaching .

Pointing out you are a lying Redditor is why I'm compelled to do so.

You have been caught in a lie.

That makes you a liar.

Why should anyone believe anything you say from this point forward?

I only post about things I'm informed about, which is why you don't see me in MAGA threads.
